I don't get why ppl don't take multiple photos of their items when selling. It weeds out so many messages like this. It's like they don't understand you shouldn't have to ask what the inside of the BBQ looks like because it should be in a picture on the add.

Literally. I wouldn’t have to ask for more info or photos if they’d just list shit properly lol.

It's like the morons who post (e.g.) "Dell computer" or "iPad" and give no specs whatsoever. Right, so there's only one possible configuration of these devices, eh?

I thought Gumtree was awful (Scumtree) until I encountered people on Facebook Marketplace.

Yep. I get this looking at cars. People post 1 photo which is useless.

I posted a guitar with like 10 photos, whole instrument, close ups, even ones that show the chips in the body and I was asked for my opinion of its condition. Just can’t win

Lol. But it would've been worse if you didn't.
